A small cache hidden in Winter Park/Mary Jane ski area in Arapaho-Roosevelt National Forest.

This cache is located in some trees just off Parry's Peek run.  Elevation is 10,800 feet above sea level.  The cache is located in the Winter Park/ Mary Jane ski area which is located in Arapaho-Roosevelt National Forest.  The cache can be hiked to in summer and skied to in Winter.  A lift ticket is only required if you plan to ride a chair lift to the cache.  There is no admission fee requirement.  From the cache area you can see the continental divide before you.  This is one of my favorite views in the area.  The cache is hanging in a tree above snow level.  Please replace out of view from muggles with boards on their feet.  Have fun and be safe.

As soon as I reached GZ, everything looked familiar and I realized I looked for this one a few years ago. Armed with the latest maintenance note, I was aimed in the right direction and soon made the find. A great day at Winter Park with lots of sun, warm temps, and soft snow. Panoramic Express was the place to be in the afternoon, as the rest of the mountain turned to slow mush. TFTC!

Checked on cache and it is hanging around doing well. When I found with my phone GPS it was 10 feet SW of coordinates but original coordinates were taken with a Garmin. Cache on!

A bit tricky with snow on the trees and goofy readings, but there it is! Thanks.

Bugrad1990 and I are spending the week at Winter Park thanks to spring break. After nabbing Camembert, we skied further down Parry's Peak to attempt this one. After slowly skiing around in the woods for about ten minutes, we were on the verge of giving up and getting down to the nearest trail. Then, I looked behind me and spotted that little guy just hanging off a branch. The cammo on this made it a tough find. SL. TFTC from St. Louis!
